Highlights of Albania

Albania has blown me away from the 10 day cultural tour. Artur our guide was very informative about the history, culture, ethics, people , food and so on, I have come away with a different view. I loved the home visit, the traditional houses and the places we went to.
Artur looked after us and was very caring and paid attention to detail and followed up on anything the individuals in the group needed.
Artur and our driver Dhui, were an amazing combination, both respectful to each other and the group. It was a memorable tour and I would go back to Albania for more

Seriously impressive

What a trip – my 6th walking tour with Exodus and utterly blown away by the Challenge 5 hikes amongst the Alpi Apuane and Apennines ranges. This was an astonishing introduction to Tuscany! If you enjoy mountain walks and vast open views this could be your next trip.

Fjords, Forests, and Forever Memories

This trip quickly became one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Norway is breathtaking in photos, but nothing compares to standing among the fjords, mountains, and forests in person. Every destination on the itinerary had its own personality and charm, making the journey feel like several incredible trips woven into one.

I especially loved how immersive each stop was. Whether we were exploring Trondheim, learning to cook with local ingredients at Sveggvika Guesthouse, kayaking through the fjords, or enjoying the Viking dinner at Blåtind Boutique Hotel, every experience felt authentic and thoughtfully planned.

What made this trip even more special were the people we met along the way. The hotel staff, local hosts, and everyone who shared their traditions and stories made Norway feel incredibly welcoming. It never felt like we were just passing through, it felt like we were being invited to experience a small piece of everyday Norwegian life.

First time in Norway, definitely not the last!

This trip was a truly amazing and magical way to experience Norway. Each of the hotels provide their own unique locales and activities from the city, to the coast, to deep in the forests along the fjords.

The Britannia in Trondheim is right in the heart of the city and a brief walk from a variety of activities and shopping areas. The city feels alive and is full of wonderful and friendly people. The private tour of the Britannia felt like such a warm and exclusive moment of the trip, and the service at the hotel is top-notch!

Our second stop, the Sveggvika Guesthouse, was probably one of my favorites. The ferry ride to Kristiansund was full of breathtaking views, and our rooms at the guesthouse were beautiful. The owners are the kindest most genuine people you have ever met; they made the cooking class and beer tasting experiences feel like I was doing them with close friends I’d known for years. This is also where we got to experience swimming in the Fjord at our guide Åshild’s suggestion. It’s not on the itinerary but it is a MUST DO!

Our final stop at the Blåtind Boutique Hotel. The Viking dinner experience was probably my favorite meal of the entire trip. The locally sourced three-course meal was delicious, and was even paired with cider from our cider tasting earlier in the day! We met a variety of people on this leg of our trip, and being able to share in the joys of their professions was an unforgettable experience.

Delights of Sicily

Have fun cycling in the sun! Warm on the bike but you will be rewarded with great food, Sicilian culture and a lot of smiles/good company.

We really enjoyed our cycling trip in Sicily. Our guide Davide was brilliant.
Funny safe and extremely helpful he made the trip enjoyablefor us all. Organising evening meals transfer arrangements, lunches, and anything we required.. would strongly recommend to anyone considering this trip.
Sebby, our driver was also very good too

Norway? Yes way!

I had such an awesome time on this trip with my fam! There was so much do do and see every day, and the trip was a perfect amount of activity as I was about 7 months recovered from a hip surgery. The fjords unesco site and the fish factory hotel were great highlights, as well as an authentic Viking dinner. And our guide Åshild was amazing, so good at keeping us organized and so fun to hang out with! Definitely a great way to experience Norway!

Superlative trip to Portugal

Our seven day trip, covering Porto, the Douro wine region, the city of Lisbon and beautiful Obidos was a fabulous introduction to this beautiful country.
Transportation was with a comfortable small coach, which did not involve unduly long journeys between our numerous destinations. Hotel stays were comfortable and well located in the towns and villages visited.
Our group of nine people were superbly led, guided, supported (and educated!) by the wonderful Carla Costa, who played such an important role in our overall enjoyment.
One of the very best tours I have ever experienced.

Beyond the bucket list!

I am keen on the natural world, fascinated by large carnivores – walking and sharing their world was the reason for booking. The spectacular mountain ranges are wild and empty of people. I enjoyed the fact that each day had a different emphasis and the lack of rest day enabled us to really make the most of our surroundings. Relaxing drinks on the patio, a feast of local delights and the company of likeminded, funny and interesting folk was a great end to each day.
I’d love to return in the autumn , but the wildflowers and butterflies were superb.

Nice Trip

The excursions were fun. I enjoyed all the people in our group. Food was good and plentiful. The family that runs the hotel did not seem very friendly. The sister in-law of one of the brothers was very annoying, when she speaks she screams. The family always ate next us in the dining room, she was horrible, our guide even asked her to pipe down. The staff was fantastic. Nice grounds but barely a 3 star.
